La Liga Team of the Week for Round 12- 2018-19 season

This was a rare week in La Liga- a round in which Messi scored two goals for Barcelona, but still ended up on the losing side (it’s NEVER happened in Barca’s history before). Betis also became the first team to score four at the Nou Camp against the Catalan giants since Deportivo in 2003.

Marc Ander Ter Stegen became the most capped German goalkeeper in La Liga in this round, surpassing the previous record of 91 set by Bodo Illgner.

There is no Real Madrid player in this week’s TOTW despite Santiago Solari’s men beating Celta 4-2. The most number of players come from Atleti and Sevilla (2 each), while Valladolid, Sociedad, Betis, Celta, Valencia, Barca and Bilbao all have one representative each.
